I Am One of Life's Winners
As the Washington Times's Robert Stacy McCain reports, AmSpec had its 40th anniversary gala last night. You'll note this, near the end of RSM's write-up:
Mr. Tyrrell said the magazine is now "training the next generation of conservative writers," and its Young Journalist Award was presented last night to Spectator staff writer[*] John Tabin. The magazine's Young Writers Program is funded by oil tycoon T. Boone Pickens.Funny thing: Until Pickens announced my name, I had no idea about this. I'm told my expression was "priceless."
Here's what they gave me:
It's crystal and therefore hard to photograph, but it says:
Young Journalism Fellowship Award
Best In Class
Presented to
John Tabin

(It's a little odd, by the way, that the WaTimes report mentions me but doesn't mention Charles Krauthammer, who received the Barbara Olson Award. I suspect it has something to do with the fact that I know Stacy McCain socially.)
*Not my actual title ("contributor" would be more accurate -- I'm not technically on the Spectator's staff), but whatever.
